I must admit that it's very nice these days when we come across these instead of the modern glass version. On Thursday while we were out we saw them in two different locations....they just look right..!

Yes it is very sad that there are so few about, in Malta there is a scrap yard that contains thousands of them.....I do so hope they don't destroy them.
I have bought two money boxes, one a letter box and the other a phone box..... I shall take them with me when I move to Spain so that they will be a small reminder of my roots.

this is so beautiful.... you gonna miss your England.... you gonna miss the weather..
LOL.. Meg...... !!
We have been to Skipton the "Castle" and the
Bolton Abby... beautiful to walk there..... how I love that area....!!!
maybe we went past your house...:=)

Yours could be from anywhere, the crown is just the standard one used for all telephone and letter boxes that where made during the rein of Queen Elizabeth 11.
There are still a few about that were made in her fathers rein and of course they have GR instead of ER on them…but there are not many about now!
